I am looking for a System 7 program that can compare text files.  I have a really nice program called CompareFiles (by Simon Hartel, Am Hang 38, 33824 Wether, Germany) but it requires Mac OS 8.5 or later.  It displays the two files side by side with the differences highlighted.  I would like to find something like this that will run in System 7.

Can't test because I don't have immediate access to a classic machine, but will BBEdit Lite work?

According to the BBEdit Lite 6.1.2 User Manual, one of the advanced features that the commercial version of BBEdit has that BBEdit Lite does not have is "Compare and find differences between individual files" (page 16).  I am hoping to find a free program that compares text files.
